Password protect projects

Dunked allows you to password protect your projects, giving you control over who can view your work. This feature is perfect for client presentations, work-in-progress projects, or any content you'd like to keep private while still being able to share it with specific individuals.

How to Password Protect a Project

Setting Up Password Protection

Navigate to your project: Log in to your Dunked account and go to the project you want to protect.
Access the project settings: Either create a new project or edit an existing one.
Enable password protection: In the project settings, locate the "Password Protect" section. Toggle the switch to enable password protection.
Set a password: Once enabled, you'll see a password field appear. Enter a secure password that you'll share with those who need access to your project.
Save your changes: Click the "Save" or "Update" button at the bottom of the page to apply the password protection.

Using Private Shareable Links

In addition to password protection, Dunked offers private shareable links that allows anyone with the link to bypass the password screen entirely.

Creating Private Links

Enable password protection: Private links are only available when password protection is enabled.
Access the private links section: After saving your project with password protection enabled, you'll see the "Private shareable links" section.
Create a new link: Click the "Create link" button to generate a new private link.
Configure link settings (optional):

Set an expiration date for the link
Limit the number of times the link can be used

Share the link: Copy the generated link and share it with your intended recipient. When they use this link, they'll bypass the password screen and gain immediate access to your project.

Managing Private Links

Viewing Link Activity

Each private link shows usage statistics, allowing you to monitor:

How many times the link has been used
Whether it has expired or reached its usage limit

Editing or Deleting Links

Copy link: Click the copy icon to quickly copy the link to your clipboard
Delete link: Remove links that are no longer needed by clicking the delete icon

Security Considerations

Choose strong, unique passwords for your projects
Regularly review your private links and remove any that are no longer needed
Consider setting expiration dates or usage limits for sensitive projects
Remember that anyone with the password or a valid private link can access your protected project

Benefits of Project Password Protection

Share work-in-progress projects with clients before they're ready for public viewing
Create client-specific portfolios that only they can access
Protect sensitive or confidential work
Control the timeline of when your work becomes publicly available

By using password protection for your projects, you can maintain control over your portfolio while still being able to share your work with the right people at the right time.
